Hi lostsoul,in a2's as well,ur each and every working will be rewarded.If ur final answer is incorrect,u will gain marks for workings.Also,own figure rule applies in a2 as well,u can check A2 marking schemes and examiner reports.Thus,u will not lose all marks provided that workings are done.Furthermore,in A2 thresholds are also created as per difficulty of paper.
